Comparisons

Managed DNS compared with the alternatives

Most DNS is either done by whoever registered the domain or left to a plugin. Here is how we compare with the usual alternatives.

• Managed DNS vs Amazon Route 53

  Powerful and priced per query. Worth it at scale, heavy for a business site with twenty records.

• Managed DNS vs DNSimple

  A good DNS host. Still a tool you operate rather than a service someone runs for you.
